file_put_contents Write data to a file &reftitle.description; intfile_put_contents stringfilename mixeddata intflags0 resourcecontext This function is identical to calling fopen, fwrite and fclose successively to write data to a file. If filename does not exist, the file is created. Otherwise, the existing file is overwritten, unless the FILE_APPEND flag is set. &reftitle.parameters; filename Path to the file where to write the data. data The data to write. Can be either a string, an array or a stream resource. If data is a stream resource, the remaining buffer of that stream will be copied to the specified file. This is similar with using stream_copy_to_stream. You can also specify the data parameter as a single dimension array. This is equivalent to file_put_contents($filename, implode('', $array)). flags The value of flags can be any combination of the following flags, joined with the binary OR (|) operator. Flag Description FILE_USE_INCLUDE_PATH Search for filename in the include directory. See include_path for more information. FILE_APPEND If file filename already exists, append the data to the file instead of overwriting it. LOCK_EX Acquire an exclusive lock on the file while proceeding to the writing. In other words, a flock call happens between the fopen call and the fwrite call. This is not identical to an fopen call with mode "x". context A valid context resource created with stream_context_create. &reftitle.returnvalues; This function returns the number of bytes that were written to the file, or &false; on failure. &return.falseproblem; &reftitle.examples; ]]> ]]> &reftitle.changelog; &Version; &Description; 5.1.0 Added support for LOCK_EX and the ability to pass a stream resource to the data parameter &reftitle.notes; ¬e.bin-safe; &tip.fopen-wrapper; &reftitle.seealso; fopen fwrite file_get_contents stream_context_create
